Default ID please --- thanks

American Intelligence would have passed it off as a Kill of an Iraqi
Airforce Fighter (Or perhaps an old Hawker Hunter gate guard) ;-)

Thanks, "bob", and thanks to everybody. Trying to get a 100% ID on those
fuzzy blobs is, I reckon, nigh on impossible. Given the fact the pix was
taken at Corfe Castle would lend credence to bob's suggestion they were
Britten Norman Islanders, that location being just along the coast from
the
BN base at Bembridge on the Isle of Wight.

Again, thanks all.

A friend sent me this very poor image - any help in ID'ing the a/c

would
be
appreciated. The photo was taken at Corfe Castle, Dorset, UK in the

summer
of 1966.

My first thought was they were Blackburn Beverleys, but they had twin

tail
fins which these fuzzy blobs appear not to have. Current thought here

is
they *might* have been Meteors.

TIA
